Editorial Focus

Kelsey Street Press was founded in 1974 to address the marginalization of women writers. From the beginning, the editors linked their editorial policy to a poetics of allowance, and to a poetics of inclusion that embraces racial and cultural diversity. Their early books were handset and printed two pages at a time on a basement letterpress.

Tips From the Editor

We are interested in experimental work that plays with language, visual art, and the senses.
